question,
how often do you guys change up your routines? and how much do they differ between when you're on vs. when you're off?
i know there are alot of variable here, such as cutting vs. bulking, but im just looking for general info, and some variations.

i change my workout up about every 4 weeks........heavy to light, and set and rep schemes as well. when im on, whether its cutting or bulking(mostly bulking......

) its high reps and moderate weight, as i try to recruit as many muscle fibers as possible. your thoughts on this?

i tend to do the same thing, go from extra heavy with low reps to medium weight with high reps. i get a better pump from the higher rep workouts as well. being an ectomorph i like to work both fast and slow twitch fibers

i havnt changed my workout up in years bro. the only thing that changes from time to time will be the weights i use.

i switch my routine every 3months,cause i feel if i keep it the same my body gets used to it and adapts and no progress is done

now we're talkin, thanks bros. i see it varies quite a bit from person to person.
big kev-the only thing you change is weights? no exercises, or rep schemes? well, i hate to ask this, but could you send it to me..........hehe, cause its workin for you.

dr evil- every 3-4 months?

maybe im changin it up too often. i see results of course, but im always open to new ideas, and all of you bros have given me things to really consider. like i said, im changing every 4 weeks. should i give it more time before changing it up?

thanks again brothers, all is appreciated.
